Week 13: Day 6 - 2012

cardio:
  • karate = 2 hours
    • first (beginners) class = 12pm to 1pm
    • second (intermediate) class = 1pm to 2pm
Tomorrow may rain. I may run tomorrow morning, depending if it's happening or not and how the clouds appear when I wake up. If it rains in the morning, I'll use tomorrow as a rest day.

Week 13: Day 5 - 2012

cardio:
  • trail/road run (@ 6:45am) = 5.38 miles, time = 57.21, pace @ 10:40
I keep telling myself that if I want to run early in the morning, I shouldn't stay up so late, especially when I have a choice of going to bed early. So because I didn't sleep long enough, I woke up feeling tired and I didn't enjoy my run. I would have enjoyed it better had I just went to bed on time.

Week 13: Day 4 - 2012

cardio:
  • trail/road run (@ 6:40am) = 4.46 miles, time = 47:37, pace @ 10:41
So since I didn't run on Tuesday, I'm going to skip my hill run this week because I can. Maybe I can do it tomorrow and it won't affect me on Sunday's run. I'd like to do a six mile run on Sunday, but I'm somewhat afraid that I'll get shin splints if I don't do a five mile run, although at the same time, I think I'll do ok if I do a shorter, yet very hilly run instead.

Week 13: Day 3 - 2012

cardio:
  • karate (@ 7pm) = 1 hour
I didn't run yesterday because I didn't feel like it.

My sister has two bikes. They both have a flat tire and I'm pretty sure that the inner tube just needs to replaced. Dang, I don't want to put money into a bike that isn't mine, even though I'm technically borrowing the bike(s) and riding them. Maybe I should enjoy a three mile walk (roundtrip) to the post office? I'll have a longer time to enjoy the sunny, nice weather while looking at birds, squirrels, trees and grass.

Week 13: Day 1 - 2012

cardio:
  • bike ride (@ 11:15am) = 2.9 miles
  • karate (@ 7pm) = 1 hour
With all the rain that we had yesterday and into the wee hours of this morning (until 6am), it was still a nice day for a bike ride. It was warm and mostly sunny, and I enjoyed looking at the clouds during my ride.

Week 12: Day 7 - 2012

cardio:
  • trail/road run (@ 6:50am) = 5.84 miles, time = 62:00, pace @ 10:37
Total Weekly Mileage: 19.31
Total Monthly Mileage: 42.50
Total Yearly Mileage: 189.76
Total Shoe Mileage: 310.01

Sometimes, I like how the weather forecast can be wrong about the weather and rain. It wasn't as cold as I would have liked, but I enjoyed my run this morning because it didn't rain and there were no signs of it! I don't doubt that it will rain much later today though IF it does rain, but at this point I don't care if it does because I've gotten my run out of the way this morning! And it can rain tomorrow if mother nature wants it that way because I'm not running!

Week 12: Day 6 - 2012

cardio:
  • karate = 2 hours
    • first (beginners) class = 12pm to 1pm
    • second (intermediate) class = 1pm to 2pm
It may rain tomorrow. If it holds out long enough, I'll run in the morning. I hope it doesn't rain in the morning, so I can go run!
